The Dallas Cowboys are considering the possibility of replacing Dak Prescott with Arch Manning in the 2027 NFL Draft, according to a report by ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. The 2026 season has been a mixed bag for the Cowboys, as their offense remains one of the top units in the league, but their record stands at 2-3 after five games. Prescott's performance has been strong, with 1,381 passing yards, nine touchdowns, and only three interceptions, but the team's overall record includes a losing streak.
The expensive salary of $60 million annually paid to Prescott may be a factor in the team's decision to find a replacement. With the quarterback class in the upcoming draft being historically strong, the Cowboys could secure a top-notch prospect in the first round, including Arch Manning, who is often projected as a top-five pick.
Should the Cowboys not make a strong push for the Super Bowl in 2026, they may consider Manning as a potential heir apparent to Prescott, providing a fresh start and a storyline that would resonate with the team's owner, Jerry Jones.
